Show off that Collection!

Since we are all knife collectors I thought it would be nice for everyone to show off a collection are two. Get one of your favorite collections together, 3 to 6 knives in all and post us a picture. It can be by pattern, style or maker; fixed or folder. What ever makes them a collection. You may post more than one collection but just 3 to 6 knives in each.

This is not a contest, just a way to show us your knives, for all to enjoy. Lets have some fun.

Hmm... 3 to 6 knives. I get it now! I'll show smaller collections For instance my Rough Rider large toothpicks. They only make five 5 inch toothpicks. Sigh! I wish they made more.

L to R, Sawcut Bone, Stoneworx, Rifleman, A Stroke of Luck, Long Rifle.

Hard to choose a favorite among them but it is probably the "ASOL"

Those are great. I think I have a different handled RR toothpick. It's just a plain green handle. I'll dig it out to see.

I love those rifle inlays, the most.

Robert my guess is that would be the 4 1/8 inch toothpick

They make three of them in 4 inch, Smooth Red, Smooth Green, and Jigged Brown (not owned) The cali clip on the 4 inch is really nice!

Comparing the sizes of the green, 3 inch , 4 /18 inch and 5 inch

Yes it's the green one with the round shield. I am trying to round up a few for a picture, later.

I was wondering if ya'll consider the three large novelty knives as Barlow pattern knives? I collect Barlow pattern knives and most are Bare Head Barlows, so these knives have me wondering. Robert Burris said:

This is a few of the knives in patterns that are not my main ones but some that I enjoy collecting. I love the large Clasp knives because of how much handle material they have. I also love vintage novelty knives because of their uniqueness. Thanks everyone for sharing ya'll's collection.

It is a hard call. I've always thought the top bolster of a barlow was longer (1/4 to a 1/3 the overall length of the handle. The smallest knife You can't go wrong with "jack knife" Compare to Barlows below.
